The present invention relates to a process for preparing a particle-stabilized inorganic foam based on geopolymers, to a particle-stabilized inorganic foam based on geopolymers, to a cellular material obtainable by hardening and optionally drying the particle-stabilized inorganic foam based on geopolymers, and to a composition for preparing an inorganic foam formulation for providing a particle-stabilized inorganic foam based on geopolymers.

Inorganic foam based on geopolymers

A set control composition for cementitious systems comprises (a) an amine-glyoxylic acid condensate, and (b) at least one of (i) a borate source and (ii) a carbonate source. The carbonate source is selected from inorganic carbonates having an aqueous solubility of 0.1 gLor more, and organic carbonates. The set control composition improves workability of cementitious systems for prolonged periods of time without compromising early compressive strength. Due to the retarding action of the set control composition, the dosage of dispersant(s) necessary to obtain a desired flowability of the cementitious system can be reduced.

Foam as adhesive for composites for thermal insulation

The invention relates to a process for modifying polymer particles of an aqueous polymer dispersion in which positively or negatively charged polymer particles are provided with an inorganic salt shell. The inorganic shell leads to an improved drying ability and storage stability of the latex and improves the storage stability of the resulting polymer powder. The obtained polymer powder exhibits an improved viscosity and faster skin-forming time in the final application and is therefore particularly useful in a building material composition.
